EVANSVILLE,  IMD, 


To  Whom  it  May  Concern; 


The  issuance  of  this  book  is  prompted  by  frequent  inquiries 
from  various  sources,  as  to  our  ability  to  compete  successfully 
with  competitors  all  over  the  United  States.  Samples  are  truth¬ 
ful  representatives  of  the  every  day  output  of  our  establishment. 
We  have  them  in  every  state  and  territory  in  the  United  States. 

The  Idea  suggested  itself  to  us,  that  prospective  customers, 
who  are  not  familiar  with  our  products,  would  more  readily  appre¬ 
ciate  a  statement  by  disinterested  parties  who  had  actual  knowl¬ 
edge  from  experience  in  the  use  of  our  store  fronts.  We,  there¬ 
fore,  publish  herein  a  few  unsolicited  testimonial  letters,  and  a 
partial  list  of  our  satisfied  customers.  Read  these  pages  carefully 
and  perhaps  you  will  find  one  of  our  fronts  in  your  own  town  or 
vicinity.  Yours  sincerely, 

GEO.  L.  MESKER  &  OO.,  Evanavtllo.  Ind.

I  have  been  going  to  write  you  in  relation  to  Iron  Front  you  sold 

to  me  ever  since  I  got  it  in, but  have  neglected  it  until  now.  It 

gives  me  perfect  satisfaction,  and  Is  very  much  admired.  Fvervone  I 

nave  heard,  says  it  is  the  hand.=3omest  front  in  the  town,  and  in  many 

/* 

other  places.  Our  druggist  in  this  town. who  has  sold  nearly  all  the  large 
plate  glass  here,  examined  it  after  I  opened  up  says  it  is  the 
rinest  arid  most  perfect  glass  in  t}>e  place,  sc  clear  he  could  not 
find  a  blemish  In  the  glass.  The  carpenter  who  did  the  work  says 
it  is  the  thickest  and  clearest  glass  that  ever  came  to  this  town 
■also  the  handsomest  front  and  most  substantial.  I  know  this  front

'  er.t  l"'’rr.en . 

The  traveling  men  and  otherc  who  knew  the  old  town  or 
SnliPbury  .N.d.  ,  six  monthfj  ago,  now  wonder  at  the  progress  and  city  like 
appeirrar.ce  of  the  buslnese  blocks, but  to  know,lQ  to  look  and  read  the 
name  of  Geo.  L.  Mesker  &  Company,  manufacturers^  of  store  fronts. 

Up  to  this  I4th  day  of  November ,  1904 , 1  have  sold  for  vnls 
city,  a,nd  the  tv;on  of  Spencer,  N.C.,just  two  miles  away,  about  FORTY 
FTGHT  (48)  .store  fronts  complete  with  atee  1  beams, cast  Iron  lintels, 
jllate  glass, sash, etc.  , for  old  and  new  busfnfts's  blocks, bxit  mostly  old 
tout  of  date  store  rooms, now  havln£^..the  appearance,  of  new  and  up  to  date 
business  blocks.  ' 

The  people  of  Salisbury  often  remark  that  D.L.Gasklll  has  done 
more  toward  building  up  the  business  part  ;^f  the  city  than  all  others 
put  .together, but  after  thanking  theraifor  sucli  expressions, which  1 
al'ways  do  of  course,  I  don't  fall  to  say  that  the  credit  should  be  given 
Geo . L, Meeker  ■&  Company, the  manufacturers ' of  store  fronts, the  people 
with  such  sxqulslt  taste  and,  with,  such  fine  and  suitable  material 
used  In  same. 

You  have  so  many  exast'oraers  all  over  the  United  States,!  feel 
quite  sure  that  my  sales  above  referred  to  woxjld  hardly  be  noticeable, 
but  If  you  add  my  extra  sales  for  steel  beams,  cast  Iron  colxirane, 
and  galvanized  foxj  Char.lptte,  Concord, N.C.  and  Gaffney ,S.C,  , and 

other  towns, therv  It  Tna-y  be  due  rrie'‘'to  have  ’sorae  notice  of  my  work  as
